Did they actually weld the convertible cross brace to the floor pan?

And who doesn't like ample use of zip ties? I mean fastening brake lines to axles with zip ties is proof of superior craftsmanship!

This video just came on YouTube.  It's a huge barn find at a farm in Oklahoma.  NOS 68 and 69 Camaro and Chevelle parts, several 1969 Z28 cars, and more DZ blocks than I could count.  The parts were all purchased by Heartbeat City in Michigan.  Incredible stuff.

The price on them just quadrupled.

What pictures do you need ?

Unless Bryon has gotten them, we still need high quality, high resolution pictures of:

1. The top view of the 67 SS hood (SS-350 or SS-396 as the upper skin is the same for both)
2. The 67 SS-350 hood inner structure
3. The 67 SS-396 hood inner structure (note that the SS-350 and SS-396 inner structures are different from each other)

These are the only pictures still holding us up because they need to be original hoods from original cars. I've been trying for several years to get these!!

I can take some photos of the 11B SS 350 hood but it has the deluxe insulation so under photos wont help. Didn't you also say you need top photos with the fins removed as well?

Took a couple of pics of my 11B hood. The fins are squared off.

Does anyone have photos of the two types?

I assume an 11B would be the first type, square ones.

Can you post a photo of what you're talking about? I've never noticed a difference.

General Discussion / Re: 69 Camaro Pace car, reportedly festival car #26 being pulled out of NC woods

« on: December 11, 2021, 04:16:33 PM »

Video happened sometime around Thanksgiving of 2021 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIc6ClE1HL4

350/auto car, Car #26

An hour long of them (Dennis Collins TX) looking at all the cars parked in the woods 

Start the discussion of the Pace Car 25:31
Talking about car being at the festival 27:04
Pulling out Pace car @ 41:37

Rockers are toast (as is much of the car) But Hey, It can be restored!

Did they ever say what the proof of it being an actual festival pace car or even a pace car?

I ask, because I've seen a video where Dennis says he found a 67 pace car but it wasn't one. I'm not even sure it was an actual dealer promo car.

Originality / Re: Odd bulkhead cutout, original ?

Thank you Kevin and Tim, That is exactly what I was talking about, the pictures are great.
 (BTW the car is a 11B)  Tim, my seats do not have the horseshoe pattern, do yours ?

  Thank you guys,
   Victor

My car does have the horse shoe which I believe is the same for all deluxe interiors in 67; mine is a deluxe parchment car.
